How many of you are there? I may try to create a new meetup group when I get there. Perhaps I can prevent the same thing from happening again if I precommit to show up somewhere at some time. I'm mostly interested in talking to people with good epistemic rationality, and playing board games (or something similar) with people who are good strategists, both of which I've found LessWrong meetups to be good for.
Counting everyone that came to at least one meetup, I think it was five people. Counting from lesswrong, the google group and the reddit threads, there are probably at least 10-15 people who would be very interested.
I'm going to be starting graduate school in Urbana-Champaign this fall, and want to know if there are LessWrongers there (or like me, going to be there) who want to hold some meetups. Google shows me that someone else tried asking the same thing last year and met with some success, but after three meetups, they went extinct.
